Subject: ELPA needs a standard mechanism for single-package compilation
Date: Fri, 08 Nov 2019 23:24:16 +0100

To compile a single ELPA package for tests or during development, it is
currently necessary to clone/pull the whole elpa.git.  This is wasteful
if only a single package is of interest.  ELPA should have a standard
mechanism that allows (pulling/)compiling/testing etc. of single
packages.  I request that such a mechanism be implemented.

Greetings,
        Raffael
